The Parent-Teachers, ur Best Friends FEW SCHOOLS in the country boast a finer relation- ship between students, teachers, and parent than that in existance on our campus, and this is ably reflected by the spirit and enthusiasm of the Parent-Teacher Association. The manifold good of the PTA is not always seen on the surface but probing will reveal this organization is directly behind all major commu- nity problems affecting student health, welfare, and recreation. Evidence of Widespread activity is found in PTA projects for this year. One typical active committee is the Health group headed by Mrs. W. W. Priest and Mrs. B. C. McOuade. This unit is active in giving screening vision tests, weighing, measuring students, making out health records, assisting with the hearing conservation program and rendering clerical assistance whenever necessary. OTHER EOUALLY important projects include juvenile protection, legislation, parent education, recreation, and student service. Working towards a goal of better homes, better schools as a challenge for youth, the PTA was ably led by Mrs. Forrest E. Brown, presi- dent: Mrs, Bert Cross, first vice-president: and Mrs. l. W. Forman, second vice-president. Heart and soul of the influential association, like the students that make up the school, are the parents of 4,000 students that call PUHS home. Meetings held six times during the year attracted fine audience responses with programs varied and interesting. Parent-Teacher influence extends down to the grade school level where outstanding evidence of co-opera- tion is found. FOUNDERS' DAY: Members of the PTA honor the association's past presidents in a special program. At lelt, Mrs. Engstrom. presi- dent of Maricopa County Council addresses the group. ln background are Mrs. Peabody, recording secretary. and Mrs. Brown, presi- dent. 9- l l ' rs. . s if Right: The ladies land Mr. Rodgers, against the curtainl give us a big smile. l20t
